Buena Vista Fifth Grade Promotion - Class of 2013

And a sixth grader is born. Ahhhhhh... The bittersweet occasion of Brailey's Fifth Grade Promotion could not have been more special. It was a truly wonderful event, and not only was it good practice for all these kiddos as they move through their lives, it is one of the memories that will always stay with them. I apologize for posting so many pictures, but I really couldn't help myself - they all turned out so well! I have more I could have put on here, truth be told, but I tried to stick to the best of the best. 

The loves of my life, my three B's.

My baby girl and I. She is everything I ever dreamed of in a little girl... And tomorrow, she will be turning ELEVEN!

Brailey and her first grade teacher, Sra. Field. We love this lady! She took such good care of Brailey when Brady was in the hospital on life support and when both Brailey and I were having a hard time adjusting to Buena Vista. I remember Brailey  would cry every single morning when I dropped her off, and so would I! She was terrified - she didn't know anyone, didn't understand Spanish and didn't want to be at Buena Vista. I remember one day Sra. Field said to me, after a few months of the school year had passed, "I've had a lot of students cry, but never a mother cry like you. You have to be strong!' And I took her advice to heart, and I've loved Sra. Field ever since. And guess what? I didn't even cry last night during the Promotion Ceremony - I sucked those tears down!

 

Britt and Daniel, who will be in the Class of 2015's Promotion Ceremony.

Brailey and her bestie, Carrie. Two peas in a pod!

Sr. Cuadros, Buena Vista's Principal. We love this man - he is a wonderful principal and also a good friend!

Brailey with her beloved teacher, Sra. Bradley, and Sra. Bradley's daughter, Pearla. (You might remember her from the Fiesta post.) Brailey has loved being in Sra. Bradley's class! She had  a wonderful fifth grade year and is ready to take on middle school. 

Daddy's Girl...

Good bye, Buena Vista!
